part 3- to the sun that
warms me or gives me
cancer, to the black hole
universe nurseries that
destroy and create in a
place that defies
everything we know about
places. It is a joy and
a pain to live. I strive
(sometimes successfully!)
to enjoin life's biggest
challenges and rewards
fearlessly and with
grace. I have often joked
that “I am a pacifist
by nature but will kill
if provoked!” That
pretty much sums up my
basic philosophy of
survival on planet Earth.
In closing, I have
discovered that the most
joy I have is when I
create. Perhaps that is
merely the satisfaction
that Creation gets from
being imitated. I do not
know but it is a fun
idea. I hope you will
take some time to explore
my music. I hope you
enjoy it and that it may
inspire you in your own
creations.
Sincerely,
Robin

part 2
of any real meaning for
me. Largely because they
have become so overused
and diversely
interpreted. To me God
is a just place holder
like "0" for trying to
grasp what is unknowable
to us observing from our
limited space time
dimensional continuum. In
regards to an
interpretation of Love as
an ultimate and desirable
polarity (like ultimate
peace)-I have never
observed any phenomena in
the universe that prefers
one side of any
polarity over another for
long. Order seeks chaos
and chaos seeks order
(chaos theory). It
appears that both sides
of any polarity are just
as intrinsic as its
opposite to the success
of what ever underlies
the workings of sentient
reality. An example
would be the polarity of
light and dark. To an
observer neither would
have any meaning or
apparent existence
without its opposite as a
background from which to
discern its difference.
So, love, hate, and all
of the various shades
between are all intrinsic
to our awareness and
ability to quantify and
imbue meaning. As we
learn from physics
everything that we as
sentient beings
experience as good or bad
is subjective. An
example is the cat and
the bird. When the cat
eats the bird the cat
rejoices because it
continues - the bird not
so much. When the bird
escapes it rejoices
because it continues -
the cat goes hungry. I
like most people prefer
to be the successful
hunter rather than the
prey. However, I remind
myself that without the
loss of the prey (death)
there would be no life.
In the abstract, all life
and death struggles are
just exchanges of energy.
The universe has no
preference over the
success of one thing over
another. That being
said, as a human being I
strive to survive while
respecting all things,
especially things that
satisfy my needs for
sustenance. That includes
my joined-at-the-hip love
for my wife of 35 years,
my family and friends and
every other being
sentient or not, all the
way down to the microbes
that sustain me or feed
on me, to the sun that
warms me or g

Hello Jon,
I wanted to respond to
the post that you sent
below. It got me to
thinking about the
subject and before I knew
it I had written a small
chapter. I am new to the
site so I am not sure of
the best way to go about
it so I have just copied
your original post for
reference below and and
the followed that with my
response;
Jon's original post;

GREAT TO MEET YOU I know
that love is ultimately
the only answer to
mankind's problems. And
I'm going to talk about
it everywhere I go. I
know it isn't popular to
talk about it in some
circles today. I'm not
talking about emotional
bosh when I talk about
love, I'm talking about a
strong, demanding love.
And I have seen too much
hate... I have decided to
love. If you are seeking
the highest good, I think
you can find it through
love. And the beautiful
thing is that we are
moving against wrong when
we do it, because John
was right, God is love.
He who hates does not
know God, but he who has
love has the key that
unlocks the door to the
meaning of ultimate
reality. --Martin Luther
King, Jr.
my response;
Hello Jon,
Thanks for your post. I
really like the music you
have posted and hope to
hear some more. I am a
little surprised that
your post focused on
spiritual matters instead
of music. I am primarily
seeking musical communion
on this site. For
spiritual and political
matters I prefer to
explore elsewhere.
However, I will share
this - Through the years
I have walked the path of
the mystic, been a
practicing remote viewer,
as well as followed the
intellectual path of
understanding and
enlightenment via studies
of most of the -ologies,
-osophies, and particle
physics. Both music and
spirituality have
occupied a great deal of
my energies for most of
my 54 years. At this
point in my life I find
that although I don't
know very much I do know
some things about both
subjects. In regards to
Love with a capital "L" I
find that word, like the
word God have become
practically devoid

TELL EVERY ONE ABOUT
IMRadio -- Got to
thinking. What if each of
us independent musicians
told our family, friends,
fans and acquaintances
about IMRadio.com, how
besides the main
stations, it has stations
for each of the states
individually, 52
countries, and just about
every musical genre --
reaching any internet
connection around the
world. We could tell them
in person, on the
internet or at small or
large venues. Anyone we
tell would appreciate the
convenience of such good
music from independent
musicians on their
computer. It would be
such a good way to help
all of us reach even more
listeners. With IMRadio,
we aren't just waiting at
the mercy of some major
label to decide whether
or not they will let us
be heard around the
world. There are enough
of us that the outreach
could be exponential.
And, wouldn't it be a
great way to say 'thank
you' to Paddy and all of
the other fine folks who
have put IMRadio.com on
the world's musical map.
They have put in money,
time, energy and
dedication, and all they
have asked of us in
return is to upload our
music and profile. I am
sure that they have great
plans to publicize
IMRadio and bring it to
even more listeners. In
the meantime, through,
wouldn't it be great if
we could all help a
little by just taking a
little time each day to
tell family, friends,
fans and acquaintances
about IMRadio. It
wouldn't cost a dime,
just a little time.
Yours, in Musical
Solidarity, Paul.
